E3 Live event announced, open to the general public

Ever since its creation, back in 1995, E3 has generally been an industry-only event. There has been some exceptions (especially in the past couple of years, with many fans being invited by publishers), but never a dedicated event made specifically for the general public. And it turns out E3 2016 will have one, called E3 Live.

E3 LiveNot only is this event open to the general public, but tickets are also free: you can check out how to get yours on the official website. Be careful though: they are limited and available on a first-come, first-served basis.

Here’s the event times:

Tuesday, June 14: Gameplay starts at 5 p.m. PDT
Wednesday, June 15: 12 p.m. — 10 p.m. PDT
Thursday, June 16: Doors open at 12 p.m. PDT

One thing to note is that E3 Live is a separate event, which does not take place at the Los Angeles Convention Center. It takes place at a venue called L.A. Live (800 W. Olympic Blvd. in downtown Los Angeles).

Visitors will be able to enjoy the following:

Games

Test drive select gadgets, games, and gear.

Live Entertainment

Enjoy live music, dance competitions, and demos.

Interactive Experiences

Meet industry personalities, light up your social feed with one-of-a-kind photo-ops, see VR demos, and more!

Exclusive Merchandise

Purchase games, exclusive gear, and collectibles.

Unfortunately, it’s not clear which publishers will take part in that separate event, and which games they will bring. If Nintendo does attend, we already know that only the latest The Legend of Zelda game on Wii U will be playable.

You can find more details on the official website!
